Originally published in 1960, Kiss Kiss brings together 11 of Roald's macabre adult tales. William and Mary was later adapted for Roald's American television series 'Way Out and several of the stories appeared in British television adaptations for the series Tales of the Unexpected in the 1980s. Also included here is The Champion of the World - the first time Roald wrote about the man who would go on to become Danny's dad in Danny the Champion of the World. In 2011, three of the stories in this collection - William and Mary, The Landlady and Mrs Bixby and the Colonel's Coat - were adapted for the theatre by Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman, along with two of Roald's other short stories to form the Twisted Tales production, which enjoyed a short run at the Lyric Hammersmith theatre.
